What does rough bluegrass look like?
Rough bluegrass (Poa trivialis L.) is a yellowish-green grass with soft leaf blades which are glossy beneath and have a narrow boat-shaped tip. It spreads by stolons and forms dense, thick patches. The leaf blades are upright at first, but tend to lay down and mat as the patches become older.Click to see full answer….

Herein, what is triv grass?Most of us just call it, “triv.” It is a bona fide cultivated bluegrass variety, often found in “shady mixtures” (not ours!), and it’s a frequent contaminant in Kentucky bluegrass seed, and even turf-type fescue seed. The dark green, low growing species is Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis).Beside above, how do I get rid of POA Trivialis? While there are no selective herbicide solutions for rough bluegrass, it can be controlled with a non-selective herbicide like glyphosate (Roundup) applied in spring, though this will kill desirable grass also. Similarly, it is asked, how does POA Trivialis spread? Because Poa trivialis spreads in dense patches-with a bright-green color that contrasts badly with desirable turf-just a few plants ruin turf appearance. Additionally, with its lack of heat and drought tolerance, Poa trivialis dies out in summer, leaving bare, unsightly patches where it thrived in cooler weather.How do you kill annual bluegrass in fescue?Non-selective herbicides will kill anything it comes in contact with. Apply non-selective herbicides to only those weeds or foliage you wish to eliminate, being careful to avoid desirable plants. Most selective herbicides can be broadcast over the area that is infested with the target weed.
